captive skylark

Chapter 66

She never felt that she was so important as a bird he was playing with.

One more thing, this Chen Huai'an came from a great family, with a wealthy family background, and he is also gentle and refined, with a friendly temperament.

She was very satisfied with this marriage, wishing she could marry him now and go as far as Jiangzhou.

But something went wrong halfway.

That day Yunxi was going to pay her respects to Mrs. Xie's courtyard, it might as well have rained on the way, she was anxious for a moment, so she took a small path in the forest and planned to pass under the eaves.

As soon as he turned the corner of the corridor, he heard someone's whispers. It was two maids who were hiding from the rain talking under the eaves of the corridor.

"Do you think this Mr. Chen will marry our cousin girl?"

"Who knows! Didn't that family relationship get settled well before, but it turned out that if there was no one, it would be gone. What's more, this one..."

One of them, Huai Xia, curled his lips, and his words were half envious and half sarcasm, "I'm looking forward to it from Jiangzhou! After living for so many days, I haven't seen any intention of proposing marriage. Let me tell you, it should be early." I mentioned it, after so many days, maybe I just didn't like her. After all, I was engaged to her before, so I might dislike her."

Taoyue next to her pushed her, "Keep your voice down, be careful not to be heard."

"What are you afraid of?" Huai Xia didn't care, "Are you the only one in this house who thinks like this? Most people look down on her, and she pretends to be gentle and demure in her usual pretentious manner. Are you the lady of this mansion? Why do the old ladies find her son-in-law one after another? Didn’t she want to send her away early. "

"Stop talking."

Taoyue told her that these words broke out in a cold sweat, she hurriedly looked around and saw no one, so she felt relieved and dragged Huaixia away.

A few days later, when Huaixia was going down the steps, she tripped over a stone rolling down the ground and fell down.

There was a gash on the pretty face, dripping with blood.

Huai Xia cried and wailed, Yun Xi, who was hiding in the dark, watched silently for a while, held up her skirt, and was about to leave quietly, but asked Lang Jun who was passing behind to grab him right away.

Chen Huaian looked down at her.

They have met many times these days, and Hui Hui always smiled softly and sweetly called him "Brother Huai'an", he was graceful, charming and charming.

It's just that right now he's standing there in vain, with his hands under his sleeves panicked behind his back, trembling with fear.

He held out his hand to her, "Bring it."

Lang Jun's voice is not thick, but extremely oppressive.

Yun Xi's eyelashes trembled slightly, he hesitated for a long time, and finally took out his hand.

Spread it out, there are a few scattered stones inside, which have not been used up just now.

She was afraid that throwing too much would make people suspicious, but she didn't expect it to be evidence that he caught her at this time.

Chen Huai'an didn't say much, took the stone in her hand, turned around and left.

"Brother Huai'an." She couldn't hold back, and called him timidly, her voice trembling imperceptibly, "I..."

"Don't be afraid." He didn't look back, "It's all for now. Don't do this kind of thing again in the future."

Yun Xi returned to Tangluo Garden in a daze.

She knew that she was done.

After this incident, Chen Huai'an was not sure how to think about her, let alone his marriage, it was completely hopeless.

In the days that followed, Yun Xi always avoided Chen Huai'an.In fact, if you can see her in the mansion, you can't avoid her, and she always looks timid, and she is no longer intimacy as before.

Xie Shuang saw that the two were not right, and asked her, "Sister, why are you always avoiding Brother Huai'an? Don't you like him?"
